What Drives the new Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe?

Upon its immediate premier, Mercedes-Benz only revealed the 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 AMG® model, however it’s expected that there are more GLE coupe models to follow. Nonetheless, the debut coupe sports a biturbo V-6 engine capable of generating 362 horsepower and 384 pound-feet of torque. That engine couples with a 9G-TRONIC nine-speed automatic transmission that routes power to the 4MATIC permanent all-wheel drive system for supreme performance and control.

While the GLE Coupe undoubtedly displays attributes of a crossover, Mercedes-Benz classifies the new model as a coupe. But with available 22-inch tires and high ground clearance, the four-door coupe will have plenty of utility on top of its stunning performance.
